What a small world this is turning out to be. But it's not hard to know what side your on. And Obomba is on the wrong side ................every time. Obama's pal Willy Ayers signed the open letter to Bloomberg supporting the NYC public school madrassa - so did Ayers brother and quite a few other radicals (hat tip trk).

In “How Many Clicks from KGIA to Obama,”
Boker tov blog recaps the KGIA muslim madrassa story and finds that
Barack Obama pal, and Weather Underground terrorist, William Ayers
signed a letter in support of the school. Ayers brother, the Huffington Post contributer, also signed the letter.

No surprise that an unrepentant, homegrown terrorist would support a

Wise counsel, albeit forlorn in today’s campaign world in which most people—especially primary voters—back the candidates who are most shameless in sacrificing their judgment to the voters’ opinions.

Many who have been disposed to admire Obama, including me, see these matters as raising troublesome questions about his judgment and character. Many of us have come to wonder whether the purportedly post-ideological Obama is so close to his party’s business-bashing, pacifistic left wing as to skew his judgment on matters ranging from the capital-gains tax to Iraq. Perhaps our suspicions are mistaken. But Obama has hardly laid them to rest.
